17 Now as He was going out on the road, one came running, knelt before Him, and asked Him, “Good Teacher, what shall I do that I may inherit eternal life?” 18 So Jesus said to him,“Why do you call Me good? No one is good but one,that is, God. 19 You know the commandments: ‘Do not commit adultery,’ ‘Do not murder,’ ‘Do not steal,’ ‘Do not bear false witness,’ ‘Do not defraud,’ ‘Honor your father and your mother.’” 20 And he answered and said to Him, “Teacher, all these things I have kept from my youth.” 21 Then Jesus, looking at him, loved him, and said to him, “ One thing you lack: Go your way, sell whatever you have and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come,>take up the cross, and follow me.” 22 But he was sad at this word, and went away sorrowful, for he had great possessions. Mark 17 - 22 My Christian friends are you ready to sell all your possession to the poor, pick up your cross and truly follow Christ? For it is written in Mark 10:25: " It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for someone who is rich to enter the kingdom of God." Make your choice today.

onyenze123:Every individual has their peculiar ONE THING. It may not be wealth for some. For Abraham, it looked like his son Isaac. It could be your job, your wife, position etc. ANything that comes between you and God, that you make a god of. For some, it could be soccer. And on and on. That's the point you are missing. |

It came a time in my life when i saw my life hanging as though on a tread. The Doctors had done all they could with their Medicine, they failed, the last option was to amputate my leg and save my life. I said No. What gave me this courage? i can't tell as i was barely a new Christian at the time. But, i had read from the Bible a man crying out to the Master saying, "If thou art willing, thou canst make me whole", and the Master healed him. I believed totally that if the Master could have compassion for that man, He would for me. I cried out the same way i believe that man had done. Much more, i made a pledge, a vow to Him, " If you'd save me from amputation or death, i will give you the leg, whatever you want to do with the it, you shall do, wherever you want the leg to go, it shall go. I will not marry, i will not raise children, i will become a living sacrifice unto you". Jesus heard me, and healed me. Today am working with the same leg to the amazement of the Doctors, and to the glory of God. Now, when it was time to fulfill my vow, i couldn't fine any Missionary organization to offer my services, i had to work so as to survive pending when i can find one. In 2014, through a friend, i found one in Jos, and was ready and hipper excited to go. But a Pastor/Mentor, advised i sought the face of God to know in what Capacity My Father would need me to serve, i took 3days away in the mountains seeking his face day and night praying. After some days, He spoke, now i know what i should to do. I will have to leave out thinking about myself and start thinking on how to pick, care and educate homeless Children. And am on it right now. Does that seem like giving all up and taking your cross and following Him? |

A true follower of Christ is one who is his or her true self. A lot of people have been mid-educated about what Christ meant. Christ is not Jesus, it is you in your natural habitat, you in your purest form. |

To me this simply means to drop your ego and be your true self |
